I haven't made threads about them, I just post about them when appropriate.

His music just seems girly to me. That's all I have to say.

I never said you started threads about them, but you constantly being EDM music up. Just thought it was funny to throw the girly music stone when electronic dance music is pretty effn sissy. I don't have to problem with wuss music either, some of my favourite bands are soft. Edward Sharp, Stars etc but I wouldn't throw stones when I'm sitting comfortably in my glass house.

Not that I disagree Buble isn't soft music either, coming from you was the funny.

I think polak mean fruity as in the majority of his audience is female, thus the music must be fruity. Very dumb statement but I suspect that's what he was going for.

Hahaha just a little ribbing my friend. I am curious if by "hold your attention" you mean have so much bass at the proper frequency that it renders you paralyzed?

And yeah the piano is an instrument. I'm not sure that pre-recording all the notes on garageband "piano" and spitting them back out counts though...

I am old, back in my day Fruity meant gay. I read it in that manner, that is why I asked.

If that wasn't how it was meant, then all good.

Also, sorry for the derail Suzles. That's really awesome!

Can't say Buble is my cup of tea but the guy can certainly sing. Once in a lifetime experience regardless.

i have no clue what EDM is... a band? a genre? and honestly, i really don't care... i just assume, seeing those three letters together, that it is no good




and on the topic of this thread - congrats Suzles! a friend of mine went to high school with him and said he was a really nice guy as a teenager and is just thrilled with the success he's had in his career.

EDM = Electronic Dance Music

It's what they started calling it after Techno got a bad rap.

Just like Janitor -> Custodian -> Caretaker

Holy crap. Did you just use capital letters? I'm impressed.

Show me one example of an EDM track that requires even mediocre performance skill at the piano.
